    Car won't go into any gear. Acts like it's in neutral.

    Okay so long story short. I was driving the car to a friends house and was probably 500 feet away and decided to show him a quick launch. I built up maybe 2 psi boost and launched. The tires spun for a second grabbed and then I heard a clunk noise that wasn't too loud. All of this was within...

    Should I trade for a Turbo 350?

    I have a friend with a built turbo 350 and 3500 stall he wants to trade for my 200-4r. What do you guys think? I like OD but I don't drive the car a lot. Is it a direct swap?

    Soft/no brake pedal when running and soft pedal after first inch with car off.

    I have a hydroboosted car and was building boost when I heard a fairly loud pop/crunch like sound and the very instant that happened the pedal sank to the floor. My car barely stopped with the pedal all the way down at that point. When the car is off the pedal is very firm, but if I press...

    Razor's Alky Kit single nozzle (new in box)

    I bought the kit late last year and all I used was the 3 bar map but I threw my original away so I am not including it in the kit. I also slightly opened the package with the hoses, wires, and looms in it for some reason I don't remember why now. Everything else is still packaged by Razor...

    Weird fuel problem.

    I'm not real sure what is going on with the car but I was driving it yesterday a little bit and as I came to a stop with the car the O2 volts dropped to 000 and the BLM would drop to 90 at the same time. When I started going the car sputtered til about 1000-1200 rpm kinda like it was choking on...

    Oil contamination in turbo

    I mailed my turbo to Precision for a rebuild due to it burning oil badly and they said oil that was contaminated passed through the turbo and the entire center section needs replaced. What could cause contamination to pass through the turbo with a "turbo saver" filter kit installed? Unless...

    Burning oil...turbo?

    After I started my car up this year it started smoking and I figured it was from sitting but after a couple start ups it never went away and the smoking got a little worse as I brought RPM up. When I was doing a walk around while it was running I noticed oil leaking between the turbo and...

    Wastegate solenoid valve cover bolt

    Anyone know where to get a new one of these? Even better would be an entire set of new valve cover bolts seeing as to how the rest of them look like crap on my covers with their age and rust.

    Pretty good size leak.

    But I can't tell if it's coming from the gasket or dipstick tube. What do you think? It's grimy around the tube but it's wet on the gasket. That doesn't mean however that it couldn't have rolled down from the tube to the corner of the pan.

    Rewiring the headlights.

    I know I read on here before that some people rewired their headlights with a 10 or 12 gauge wire. If I start at the connectors at the headlights where do I finish at? The switches under the dash? I had some gremlins in the wiring either shorts or grounds perhaps both and I definitely needed to...

    Restoring window trim color.

    Has anyone used Mother's Back to Black on the trim around their windows? Mine are a little faded but I'm not sure if it will actually do anything or if there is something else I should use to bring the color back.

    Rear hazard lights dim.

    I had my flashers on the other night and the rear lights flash very very dim. It was night time and I couldn't see it flashing in back with my lights on but when I turned the lights off I could see the tails light up dimly. What could cause that? Bad ground? Relay? The tail light harness inside...

    High timing.

    So I noticed my timing at idle is 25-26.5 degrees usually, when cruising it goes up to 30's or 40's. However when I floored the car it went up to 30 at one point and most of the time stays around 26.5* while the Gen 2 is set to 19* at WOT and there should be 1* more in the chip. So what would...
